STARTING Saturday, goods from Trinidad and Tobago entering the United States will be subject to a baseline 10% tariff, as US President Donald Trump followed through on his “Liberation Day” promise, announcing yesterday that 180 countries will face similar or even more aggressive trade measures.

Trinidad and Tobago will receive the baseline 10% tariff, while Guyana will face the highest rate in the Caribbean Community (Caricom) at 38%, ranking among the highest globally.

Cambodia topped the list with a 49% tariff, followed by Madagascar 47%, Sri Lanka 44% and Vietnam 48%.
